Brer Magnus

Brothers and Sisters, welcome to the Spring Meeting. We are here to


hold fast in these times of change! To protect our heritage even as our
very existence is threatened by those who want us to sit at table with
non-believers. To force our children into mixed schools. To
compromise our Brotherhood heritage. Brothers and Sisters, we must
do everything in our power to preserve our separateness.

You are the generation who will make them sit up and take notice.

They live like animals, without rules. But they need to know we haven’t
forgotten.
